The new thicknessSENSOR is a sensor system for precise thickness measurement of strip and plate material. This fully assembled system comprises a stable frame on which two laser triangulation sensors are fixed that detect the thickness of various materials according to the difference principle. The evaluation unit integrated into the frame calculates the thickness values and outputs these via different interfaces.

The thicknessSENSOR enables turnkey thickness measurement along with an unmatched price/performance ratio. Due to its extremely compact design, this sensor system can also be integrated in a confined installation space. Several models with different measuring ranges and widths enable the detection of various object geometries.

The integrated laser sensors are perfectly adjusted to each other in terms of their mounting conditions, therefore providing high measurement accuracy.
  • Immediately ready for use due to perfectly harmonized components
  • Easy integration and operation
  • Precise measurement results with high dynamics
  • Non-contact and wear-free measurement
  • Compact system
